If all of us have learned our basic knowledge through play then this should encourage teachers to have more interactive lessons that allow individual experimental learning. Philosopher Frederick Froebel also believed in learning through play. He developed the term kindergraged which stands for a garden for and of children. Froebel's kindergarten theory consist of three parts, creative play which can be interpreted as active learning, gifts of occupation such as dancing and singing, and the observation of plants to stimulate awareness of the natural world. His theory correlates with mine because it focuses on creativity and exploration which both lead to active learning. In addition I think that specifically science teachers should use this techniques to teach their classroom because it welcomes creativity and curiosity which is the basis of
